Focus on the latest trends of artists and convey the mainstream voices in the circle.
In 1951, at the age of 16, the talented Gu Jianfen had already held an important position as a piano accompanist in the Luda Song and Dance Troupe, and in this artistic environment, she met Xing Bo, a dancer who was also obsessed with music creation, and it was love at first sight, and the two quickly met on the stage of the music world.
This love across cultures and geographies has gone through countless trials and tribulations. In 1958, because she was born in Japan, Gu Jianfen was forced to leave her beloved Beijing and go to the countryside of Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, where she began heavy manual labor.
In order not to drag down the beloved Xing Bo, Gu Jianfen tearfully proposed to him to break up at the time of parting, and she choked up and told Xing Bo: "I don't want to be a burden to you, let's end this relationship as soon as possible, and it may be the best choice to get rid of it as soon as possible."
However, the strong Xing Bo was not swayed by Gu Jianfen's words, he firmly said: "As a man, how can I stand idly by when you face difficulties? I will patiently wait for your return, whether it is a year, two years, ten years, or even a lifetime, I will stick to this promise."
The two hugged each other tightly and reluctantly said goodbye.
In the harsh rural life, Gu Jianfen gradually adapted to the environment there with her tenacity and courage. Xing Bo often gave her endless encouragement and support through letters, making her feel the warmth and hope of life.
Finally in 1964, their marriage application was approved, and Gu Jianfen was so excited that she burst into tears.
Soon after the marriage, Gu Jianfen had to return to the countryside of Xuzhou to continue working. This repeated separation is heart-wrenching, but Xing Bo has never given up his love and care for his wife.
Not only did he have to work hard, but he also had to take care of his two daughters on his own, and despite the hardships of life, he always maintained a positive and optimistic attitude and never let these negative emotions affect his wife.
In 1968, Gu Jianfen became pregnant again and gave birth to a lovely little daughter Gu Qianhui. Subsequently, she finally ended her long years in the countryside and returned to her long-absent home in Beijing. In order to make up for the regrets of the past, Gu Jianfen devoted himself to music creation day and night, and created hundreds of popular classics in only three years.
These masterpieces full of the characteristics of the times, such as "Young Friends Come to Meet", have undoubtedly injected new vitality and connotation into the Chinese music scene.
Despite her achievements in the field of music, Ms. Gu Jianfen's meticulous care for her daughters is often forgotten. According to her eldest daughter, Gu Ying, her mother usually prioritized the students' meals, while the sisters could only eat leftovers.
Such a lack of maternal love makes them often confused and lost on the road to growth. It is not until they reach adulthood that they gradually grasp the deep meaning of their mother.
Despite the pain of widowhood, Ms. Gu Jianfen did not give up her passion for a career in music. She has always maintained a positive attitude and devoted more time and energy to the trivial matters of her family and daughters.
She watched with joy as her two daughters entered the palace of marriage one after another and established a warm little home of their own.
In 2003, Ms. Tani returned to her homeland from Japan with her husband and two lovely daughters and began a new journey in life. Seeing the lively and lovely granddaughters, Ms. Gu Jianfen felt endless creative inspiration in her heart.
Since 2005, she has devoted herself to the creation of children's songs, hoping to use beautiful melodies to convey poetry and songs to the majority of children.
In the following year, she composed music for more than 50 songs in a row, and composed many popular classics such as "Spring Dawn" and "Silent Night Thoughts".
These new school songs have been widely disseminated in primary and secondary schools and cultural and art centers across the country, and are deeply loved by teachers and students. She wanted to prove that she didn't just create music for personal gain, but more importantly, because of her deep love for the job.
However, just when Ms. Gu Jianfen's career was in full swing, her family suffered major changes. In October 2015, her 83-year-old husband, Mr. Xing Bo, unfortunately passed away due to illness, which undoubtedly brought a heavy blow to Ms. Gu Jianfen.
She had accompanied her husband through difficult times, but now she has to face the future life alone. Just as she had not yet recovered from the grief of bereavement, another, even heavier blow struck.
In May 2016, the youngest daughter Gu Qianhui was diagnosed with a cerebral aneurysm, and due to the severity of her condition, she passed away just 15 days after the onset of the disease. In just 8 months, Ms. Gu Jianfen lost her husband and daughter successively, and her life seemed to have fallen into the abyss of despair.
Gu Jianfen's eldest daughter, Gu Ying, deeply understood her mother's suffering, and decisively decided to move back home to accompany her and provide psychological counseling for her. Her selfless dedication is undoubtedly the best comfort to her mother.
And Na Ying and Mao Amin, two excellent students, after learning about the plight of their teacher, did not hesitate to lend a hand, often came to visit, and gave her endless love, especially Mao Amin, her admiration for Teacher Gu is like her own mother, often planting all kinds of fresh vegetables and bringing them to visit.
Na Ying was once humorously criticized by teacher Gu Jianfen for her beautiful singing voice as "having a beautiful voice, but with a stupid head", but she has always added joy and warmth to the teacher's life with an optimistic attitude of "bold and frank".
In addition, former outstanding students such as Sun Nan, Li Yong and Su Hong also came to visit and bring joy and blessings to Teacher Gu Jianfen.
In the company of these relatives and friends, Professor Gu Jianfen gradually walked out of the haze in his heart and regained the light of life. Gu Jianfen has struggled for the music industry all his life, cultivated generations of outstanding musical talents, and left priceless musical treasures for the society.
Whether she founded a vocal training center or focused on children's music education, she has always maintained her passion for music.
In 1984, with his own savings and the support of his family, Gu Jianfen resolutely decided to establish the "Gu Jianfen Vocal Training Center". Although relatives and friends were worried about her at that time, and some even ridiculed her for "discrediting her alma mater", she still firmly believed that she not only provided free room and board, but also gave a living allowance of 45 yuan per month.
In order to allow students to receive a more professional education, she even spared no expense to invite Mr. Jin Tielin, who is well-known at home and abroad, to be the teacher.
Under the careful cultivation of Gu Jianfen, many superstars in the music industry such as Na Ying, Liu Huan, Mao Amin and Sun Nan have made brilliant achievements in their respective careers. She has created many popular songs for these students, such as "Mother in the Candlelight" composed for Mao Amin, hoping to let the students better understand the sincere emotions in the songs.
In 2015, Gu Jianfen won the world-renowned "Lifetime Achievement Award" at the Golden Bell Awards, a major event in the music industry, which is undoubtedly the supreme praise for his outstanding artistic talent. This great artist has dedicated his life to the cause of music education without reservation, giving birth to countless shining stars, which can be described as a true interpretation of "peach and plum in the world".
Even after experiencing a heavy blow in his later years, Gu Jianfen still stuck to his love for music. Her perseverance and perseverance are truly admirable.
Whether it is composing those popular classic songs, cultivating many musical talents, or even reconstructing his life in his later years, Gu Jianfen has always been extremely passionate about this career.
What she wants to prove is not just that she writes music for personal gain, but more importantly because of a deep love for this noble cause. Most of the huge funds needed to build the recording studio came from the hard work and sweat accumulated by her husband and her husband, as well as the generous support of her two daughters.
Even in the midst of difficulties, she has never wavered in her ideals and pursuits.
